💵 Eid Money Gifts (Eidi)

Eidi is the tradition of elders giving cash gifts to children and younger relatives on Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha to mark the festive occasion. The practice reinforces generational bonds and ensures that even children participate in the joy of the holiday. In South Asia, the Middle East, and diaspora communities, new currency notes are prized for Eidi; banks often stock freshly printed notes before the holiday to meet demand.
